I'm using ubuntu mate 19.04 with go version go1.10.4 linux/amd64

there are ways ot use TLS certs on coder, but what if I'm using sshcode? anyway to specify a cert to be used to secure the traffic?

We currently cannot run the command on a server where other people are already using it. When running the script, it crashes at the moment it tries to delete /tmp/sshcode-code-server because it is owned by another user. We should be able to pass an option to define the name of our tmp folder, for exemple the same name suffixed by /$USER

adding a command line arg to indicate WHERE to get extensions from for sync would allow using different extension configs for different uses.

is there a way to specify the docker image. to have one with vscode + some other utils

So, as the usage of envVariables is to set path for config and ext directories,
but when i set them to my OOS build of vscode, it says no such file or directory exists.

I put these in my .bashrc

export VSCODE_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.config/Code - OOS/User"
export VSCODE_EXTENSIONS_DIR="$HOME/.vscode-oos/extensions"

and I get:

Server file no newer than local file ‘latest-linux’ -- not retrieving.

If I put

export VSCODE_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.config/Code\ -\ OOS/User"
export VSCODE_EXTENSIONS_DIR="$HOME/.vscode-oos/extensions"

I get same error:

I think there is some parsing issue while changing directory to the defined path.

Is there a way where multiple users can access the same server? Currently I'm unable to login using multiple users, for e.g, if root access it first - a higher privilege file is created that a normal user is unable to overwrite inside /tmp.

Is there a way to bypass this?

Feature req:
Add version output on execution

When there is a jump server between localhost and code-server, and we should ssh to jump server and then go to code-server (not an IP), does sshcode still work?

Thanks for the wonderful work on sshcode and code-server. I've been using code-server for a few weeks now and it's changed my workflow completely!

Unfortunately, I'm hitting an issue when I try to use sshcode with the vscodevim extension. It prevents all keyboard input when activated, and the "Activating extensions..." message keeps flashing in the bottom tray. Disabling the extension reactivates input.

I don't see any error messages in the Log regarding the extension. Any idea what may be the culprit?

I installed sshcode on macos and connecting to an Ubuntu 16.04 VM.

Tried to specify a different port for ssh on my server
sshcode [email protected]:port returns error
sshcode [email protected] --ssh-flags '-p xxxx' is ignored

How should it be done?

Should use Travis

See google chrome support

I use sshcode in Macos,want to install vscode server to centos 7.5,report the following error:

sshcode gcp:test-kyle

We would execute gcloud compute ssh test-kyle -- <ssh flags> instead of the normal SSH command.

I try to start sshcode under windows to connect server in Ubuntu, then when it install code-server I got the error message. I have checked server, /tmp and /tmp/code-server are there:

I think it maybe the default login directory is /home/user? does someone know how to solve it or skip the step?

Is it possible for you to update sshcode so that it is not hardcoded to use 127.0.0.1 and give us the option to use 0.0.0.0. ChromeOS will not load anything except when it is forwarded to 0.0.0.0.

🤔

Lovely project, can't wait to integrate it into my day to day workflow, but I've hit a reasonably major problem. The shortcuts I would consider important (Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V) won't work if no text is selected.

Steps to reproduce:
- Clean Ubuntu 18.04 install
- Install Chrome & Git
- Install sshcode
- Run sshcode to Ubuntu 18.04 host
- Ctrl + X not working , nor is Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V, etc..

With a clean VSCode install Ctrl + X will delete the line if nothing is highlighted, same thing for Ctrl + C, etc...

Just installed client on MacOS, but trying to close the window with cmd+W or cmd+shift+W results in a "Not implemented" error, but it is assigned in the editor keyboard shortcuts.

More of a suggestion than anything else.
I saw this popup and was fascinated by it, job well done and it's very cool.
I work quite a bit with Crostini on ChromeOS, it's basically a Debian Container running inside of ChromeOS and from the main chrome browser you can hit "penguin.linux.test" and anything that is running there locally will show up. So if you launch code-server with --host 0.0.0.0 it will show up inside the ChromeOs browser and it works REALLY well.

Your code inspired me to spend a few hours yesterday whipping up https://github.com/Zate/codetini. I think though, that when I get some pieces worked out around launching the app, perhaps I might do a pull request against this code base to add a switch such as --local and/or --crostini to support this use case. maybe both with the --crostini just being able to assume a whole bunch of things because it's configured the same on each chromebook.

so just proposing a --local flag to download/update the binary locally, connect it to any user preferences and extensions you happen to have and bring it up as either an app or in a browser tab.

It's obnoxious for the remote server to have extensions I've deleted.

My remote server needs to use an http_proxy/https_proxy to download packages from internet. Can you add support for this? Usually I would add export http_proxy=someproxy:port and export https_proxy=someproxy:port to the beginning of my script.

Even better, can we have an option to run some commands (like the exports above) before sshcode starts executing?

Would it be possible to add a Download option to the context menu to download a file or directory to the local machine?

Would be super useful to do it from vscode rather than from some ftp client

E.g. if the user has firefox set as the default browser.

Will clean up some of the CLI processing code.

Add option to upload code-server binary when there is no internet connection on the remote host.

Path to the config directory is hardcoded here ( $HOME/.config/Code/User/ ),
the unofficial builds doesn't use this path,
they use $HOME/.config/Code - OSS/User/ instead.
(I'm not sure about Mac paths)

We should probably support them as well.

EDIT:
Also, VSCodium uses $HOME/.config/VSCodium/User/

Hello,
Can you adapt the code to work on a remote ARM machine ?
For example, for : Odroid ARMBIAN 5.38 (Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS)
Currently we have the following error message:
bash: / tmp / codessh-code-server: can not execute binary file: Exec format error
Thank you in advance.

See #1

At least on Mac, it requires chmod +x to run

Right now we require rsync on the remote server.

Developing in a normal browser window is a significantly worse UX than developing in a browser app window. I think some kind of warning when they don't get an app window is justified.

It could be an extra INFO log before we open the browser. That shouldn't be too annoying.

It would make sense to also have --extensions-dir and --user-data-dir flags, since both of those are available on code-server.

Hello

I've just installed sshcode, using go get -u go.coder.com/sshcode, and go to run it, and it fails with the below error:

sshcode [email protected]
2019-05-02 11:13:06 INFO	ensuring code-server is updated...
2019-05-02 11:13:06 FATAL	error: failed to parse host IP: host argument is not a valid IP address

Does it only work with ip addresses?

I'm running sshcode on Ubuntu 19.04.

I'm getting "zsh: command not found: sshcode" when running sshcode user@ip from my Mac.
I installed go and ran "go get -u go.coder.com/sshcode" before this.

Are there any additional steps I may need to get this working?

Hi,

I was just wondering if CentOS support has been tested. I'm attempting to use this, and I get the following error output when starting code-server:

/tmp/codessh-code-server: /lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /tmp/codessh-code-server)

2019-04-22 09:49:09 FATAL	code-server didn't start in time context deadline exceeded

I excuted 'go get -u go.coder.com/sshcode '， sys returned as below.

package golang.org/x/xerrors: unrecognized import path "golang.org/x/xerrors" (https fetch: Get https://golang.org/x/xerrors?go-get=1: dial tcp 216.239.37.1:443: connect: connection refused)

Currently if you have both google chrome and chromium installed, it will always pick google chrome. There should be a way to edit the order it checks or specify a browser.

Is sshcode supposed to work connecting to a Mac?

wget -N https://codesrv-ci.cdr.sh/latest-linux

1. looks like it tries to download linux version.
2. wget is not available by default. (curl is)

cheers,
